Lie to me
Lie again
Hide the truth like a thin disguise
you’re failing to pull the veil over my eyes
My pain never reaches you
my tears don’t stain your face
Your pain burrowed in me, home
like it finally found its place
your tears cut like your lies
they cut
and my body is your piece of art
broken and scarred
I’m bleeding but it’s never about me
it’s never about what you’ve done
denial is your safe haven
building a wall
it’s about your pain and how you choose to cope
burying your knives deep within me
you don’t love me
you never did
because those who love don’t
make a cut just to watch it bleed
twist the knife in deep
pour salt in my wounds
with words and actions
all the while saying those three words
I love you
